Alternative Living
– Flyer Distribution Extended
to Vicinities
South of San Jose

A total of 100,000 Alternative Living flyers were recently printed through PennySaver business ads services and delivered to individual homes of different vicinities within San Jose. Aside from that, hundreds of leaflets were placed at the local vegetarian restaurants to provide convenient access to the daily lunch and dinner guests.

On March 18-19, just that one weekend, 8,000 flyers were delivered on foot from car to car by our “walking” team at the Gilroy Outlet Shopping parking lot. On the Saturday walk, the security was cruising in their patrol car alongside the sisters at first, just out of curiosity. But later, they decided to help us place the flyers on the front windows of parked cars for the rest of the afternoon. On Sunday, a whole family who received a flyer from a sister was very excited, as if they received a valuable gift. They stood right in the parking lot reading the flyer and discussing it among themselves. The scene was just so beautiful.

Continuing this noble effort, the following Sunday of March 26, sisters and brothers went to Salinas. Again the Alternative Living flyers were quickly and quietly distributed in the parking lots of several shopping malls. Salinas, similar to Gilroy, is a small town with mostly Hispanic-speaking natives. So the Alternative Living flyers were prepared in both Spanish and English. The people were very nice and simple and cheerfully received the flyers from us. In both cities many even approached us directly to ask for the flyers. Some people even drove by and softly honked for our attention to take a flyer from us!
